Workouts 11th May – 16th May

Really excited for the next 6 weeks format for training which will adhere to the following format:

Week 1 we will 5 rep max test a major lift or movement each day and then over then over the following 4 weeks we will do a variation of this lift and then retest the original lift again in 6 weeks and hopefully see some gainz (eg. 5RM back squat week 1 – box squat week 2 – Dynamic squats Week 3 and so on until 5RM back squat again week 6).

The following lifts will be tested:

5RM Back Squat

5RM Strict Overhead Press – no use of legs at all!

5RM Barbell Lunge

5RM Chins or best score achieved

Max Effort Plank

2 min burpees

This should keep people motivated to demonstrate consistency to their training/ nutrition and recovery outside of the gym as those that do can expect to see big improvements in fitness/strength and body composition.
